My Flagstaff Soccer Tournament

Last weekend, I went to Flagstaff for my soccer tournament. Me and my Dad rode up early Saturday morning with my friends, Chandler and Jalen. They are both are on my soccer team. Later that afternoon, we had our first game of four games. We won it 5-0 or 6-0 I can't remember. I got 3 goals and 1 assist. I'm happy won that game. Later on, we had our second game. At the end of the game, the final score was 4-0 we lost. Bummer, but it's all right because that team was the best team in the state!!!

The next morning, I went downstairs to the first floor of my hotel, called The Drury, to go eat breakfast. Then, we checked out of the hotel and went to the fields for my next game. We were playing the Blackhawks, the second best team in the state. At the end of the first half, the score was 1-1. At the end of the game, the score was 3-1 we lost. Later on, we played our next game. At the end of the game, the score was 3-0. Darn, those teams were hard, it's all right though because we were playing in the gold bracket when we should have been in the silver bracket.

I'm happy I got a little taste of what good teams are like. It was a fun tournament overall. I hope I can go back up to Flagstaff someday. Oh well. I think this is about it. Bye! :D

Scorpion Hunting

My dad started to hunt scorpions six weeks ago, he found a scorpion on the driveway the first day we lived here. When he saw that same scorpion, it was dead. How creepy. Then, I found a scorpion hanging above my basement shower. I told my dad about it, then he came and knocked it off the ceiling! A seven foot free fall had to infuriate him. He fell right into the bathtub! "The tail's up now," stated my dad and he killed him with my shoe! He then flushed him down the toilet. After he killed him, my dad told me he was going to start hunting scorpions.

We are now at 150 scorpions killed altogether. I found one and killed two. I found the 150th scorpion and killed all by myself, except for my dad holding the UV light. Let me guess, you're going to ask if he ran and oh yes, he ran. He sprinted, and he almost outran the blowtorch, but when I got him, he fell to the ground and struggled for his life, but, I couldn't give it to him.

And that was our 150th scorpion killed in just six weeks. Wow. I think I should close now. Bye! :) :D

Travel Soccer Fun!

Two weeks ago, I had a soccer game in Tuscon at 12:30 in the afternoon. I had to be out there at 11:45 in the morning because that was when warm ups started. After warm ups, we got on the field and the game started. I started out the game on my usual position, center forward. Although, I also do play center midfield. At the end of the game, we won 6-3. I got 2 goals and 2 assists. Overall, the game was quite fun.

Last week, I had a game in Peoria at 8:00 in the morning. I had to wake up at 5:00 in the morning and we had to leave at 5:55 because we had to be there at 7:15 for warm ups. Once we were done with warm ups, the game started. At halftime, the score was 1-1. We came back and beat them 4-2.

Overall, both games were a lot of fun! I'm happy to be playing travel soccer. I love it! I hope to write again soon!!! :D

My Brother's Huntington Beach Tournament

On Labor Day weekend, we went to Huntington Beach, California for one of my brother's tournaments. It was also like it was a vacation. We stayed in a hotel called Double Tree Hotel, which comprised of seven stories. We were on the fifth. If you go on floors 2-7 they'll all look the same inside. The lobby was very luxurious and whereas the breakfast rooms (if you look up) had chandeliers. The basement was the parking area. There was also a restaurant (for lunch and dinner) called The Bordeaux Restaurant. I wanted to take a look inside, but my mom and dad said, "No." Oh well. I really liked the hotel anyways, so that was good.

Now to my brother's tournament. My brother's tournament games were 1-2 one win, two losses. On our last game we played for third place and we won I think 5-0. It was somewhere around there. We didn't make the playoffs. Oh well. But I liked that last game anyways and the playground, so that was good.

Lastly, I went to San Diego to see family. A cousin of mine named Jocelyn had a game that one night we stayed there. I don't really remember the score. The next morning, Jocelyn had another game, but I stayed home along with my brother and Jocelyn's brother, Justin. I had fun that time playing Halo 3. But once the others arrived I had to leave. I was already having fun, I was loath to leave. But overall, I had lots of fun there anyways, so that was awesome.

Well, I think I should close now. See you next time!
